Chapter 83: Uncle and Nephew
"Ahem, Lord County Commander, my apprentice did bring back a child named Ah Mao," After hesitating again and again, Peng Laosha decided to admit it, explaining nonsense, "It is a coincidence, my apprentice went out to run errands, and found this child in the wilderness, and saw that he was alone, very pitiful, so I took him back to the town, thinking about finding a family for him, but it was actually a relative of the county commander, coincidentally!"
"Yes, it's a coincidence," Jiang Ming smiled, "Ah Mao is here, I'm relieved." ”
Peng Laosha scratched his head awkwardly, "I will ask the apprentices to take good care of Ah Mao and send him home one day." ”
"Don't worry about Master Lao," Jiang Ming said quietly, "I'll send Ah Mao back, his family is very worried." ”
As he spoke, he went upstairs.
"The county commander waits," Peng Laosha hurriedly stopped Jiang Ming and trotted upstairs, "I'll go and call Ah Mao down." ”
If Jiang Ming saw Ah Mao being tied up with five flowers, Peng Laosha couldn't tell with a hundred mouths.
So I didn't dare to let Jiang Ming go upstairs.
in the room.
The monk with the broken arm was guarding Ah Mao, and when he suddenly saw the master coming, his face turned pale with fright, and the master of the heart said that he must blame him.
"Untie the rope. Peng Laosha pointed at Amao.
"Master, why?" the Severed Arm Monk was stunned.
Peng Laosha sneered and briefly said Jiang Ming's important person, "It's all a good thing you did, it's not good to catch someone, but you just arrested the relatives of the county order, bastard!"
The monk with the broken arm looked aggrieved, "Apprentice...... How do you know ......?"
"Master, if you don't admit it, he is a small county order, do you dare to do anything with you?"
"!" Peng Laosha was furious and slapped away decisively, "No matter how small the county magistrate is, he is also an official of the imperial court, representing the Dayang Imperial Court, you can look down on it in your heart, and you must be polite and give three points on your face!"
"What's more, he's still our cash cow!"
The Broken Arm Monk rubbed his face, didn't dare to say more, and quickly untied the rope on Ah Mao's body.
Peng Laosha grabbed his collar with one hand, slipped Amuti up, and hurried downstairs.
When he went downstairs, Peng Laosha's attitude took a big turn, put Ah Mao down gently, touched his head, and said, "Ah Mao, go, meet your uncle, don't talk nonsense!"
As he spoke, he pulled and pushed Ah Mao to Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming was overjoyed, and pinched Ah Mao's little face, "Stinky boy, I haven't grown so big for a few years, and my uncle almost doesn't recognize you." ”
"Don't run around in the future, your family is worried, do you know?"
"Come, eat a steamed bun. ”
Jiang Ming took out a steamed bun from his pocket, handed it to Ah Mao, and quietly squeezed his eyes.
Ah Mao looked stunned and didn't react for a long time.
Why did the bad guy suddenly let him go?
Who is this uncle who came out of nowhere?
He didn't know any of them.
However, after getting the steamed bun, Ah Mao saw a simple Tai Chi pattern engraved on the bottom of the steamed bun, and suddenly realized, "Brother Taoist!
He didn't know what Tai Chi gossip was, but he had seen this pattern many times in Taikoo Temple, so he naturally knew it.
Ah Mao is very smart, although he is happy in his heart, his face is silent, he does not speak, and he takes the steamed bun and gnaws it.
"Master, thank you for helping to take care of Ah Mao, I have to send him home, so I will take my leave first. Jiang Ming held his fist.
"You're welcome, please. Peng Laosha nodded.
Jiang Ming didn't stop, and hurriedly took Ah Mao to leave Wang'an Tower, got into a sedan chair, and went to the county office.
After Jiang Ming and the others left, the monk with the broken arm sneaked out and said worriedly: "Master, this kid is ghostly, he will definitely tell the truth when he goes back, and the disciple is afraid that he will not be able to hide it." ”
Peng Laosha sneered, "If you can't hide it, you can't hide it, even if the county order knows the truth, he won't dare to tear his face with me!"
"Master is right," the Severed Arm Monk breathed a sigh of relief, "You can let this kid go, what can we do to lure the stinky Taoist priest to take the bait?"
As soon as he said this, Peng Laosha became angry, and decisively slapped out, "Attract a fart, it's all your stupid tricks, let us ambush for a day in vain, waste!"
The monk with the broken arm trembled with fright, covered his face and knelt on the ground, "Master...... Master spares his life!"
......
County office.
Jiang Ming took Ah Mao off the sedan chair and came to the back office.
Along the way, Ah Mao was uneasy.
It wasn't until he saw Lin Yi that he put his mind at ease and grinned, "Brother Daoist!
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and touched Ah Mao's head, "Ah Mao, you're not injured, are you?"
"No," Ah Mao shook his head obediently, "Brother Daoist, you are so powerful!"
Lin Yi smiled lightly and pointed at Jiang Ming, "It's not that I'm powerful, it's this uncle who is powerful." ”
"Hmm...... You are all amazing," Ah Mao rubbed his nose and bowed down one by one to thank him, "Thank you, uncle, thank you, Brother Daoist." ”
Jiang Ming also showed a rare smile on his face, and reached out to rub Ah Mao's little head, "What a sensible and smart child!"
Rescuing Ah Mao is a matter of Lin Yi's heart.
In the final analysis, Ah Mao's suffering from this calamity has nothing to do with him.
Fortunately, there is no danger.
Lin Yi originally wanted Ah Mao to stay in the county government for a day and send him back to Lijia Village tomorrow.
On second thought, it is better to send Ah Mao away as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night and make mistakes again.
So he informed Jiang Ming of his concerns.
Jiang Ming was very simple, and immediately sent a few officials to get a carriage, and asked the officials to protect Ah Mao back to Lijia Village.
Mao is very worried about his grandmother and wants to go home early.
It's just that when parting, he was reluctant to give up on Lin Yi.
"Brother Taoist, will you still come to Ah Mao?"
Ah Mao's eyes were red and he wanted to cry.
Lin Yi pinched his face and nodded and smiled, "When the Taoist brother finishes his work, he will definitely go to Lijia Village to see you and take good care of grandma, you know." ”
"Hmm!"
Only then did Mao get happy and get into the carriage with joy.
Several officials also boarded the carriage and drove the horses out of the county office.
Wow!
Bang Bang!
After a while, he disappeared into the streets.
Seeing off Ah Mao, Lin Yi and Jiang Ming returned to the back office and began to discuss business.
Jiang Ming was secretly anxious in his heart, and couldn't wait to mention: "Dao Chief, I have rescued Ah Mao as agreed, you see ......"
Lin Yi understood what he meant, and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the poor road is a good talker, and I have already thought of a plan to let Peng Laosha beg for rain, my lord, please listen to the poor way and talk about it in detail......"
He no longer concealed it, and told Jiang Ming all about his calculation strategy.
So so, so so!
After hearing this, Jiang Ming's face was shocked, and his expression hesitated, "Dao Chief, this ...... Will this work, and won't it be too risky?"
Lin Yi smiled lightly, "My lord, there is no perfect strategy in the world, any strategy has some risks, if you try, there is half a chance to succeed, if you don't try, there is no chance." ”
Jiang Ming naturally understood this truth, frowned and thought about it again, and finally slapped the table and said, "Okay! Do as the Taoist chief says!"
